Yaocihuatl A.C.

Mission

Since 1992 we produced five videos for children and parents and developed the curricula to train professionals who deal with children in abuse prevention. After working with almost all public pre-school teachers in Mexico City, we have formed a large network of people who are eager to work with us to enlarge the project in order to reach more people. Now, we give attention and offer shorter workshops for parents and all people on the same subjects, with specific goals.

Programs

We belong to a network called Red Por la Infancia y la Adolescencia to promote programs and public initiatives to increase awareness of children’s issues. We also work on topics like “pregnancy in adolescence” and “substance addictions in youth and young adults.” We are preparing a self-help CD on controlling emotions and another video on childbirth offering the basic reflections before, during and after pregnancy. We participate in forums in Mexico and worldwide.
